As part of this year’s Ballina Salmon Festival, Ballina Arts Centre will present The Children of Lir, by the Sheila Moffat School of Irish Dancing on tonight, Friday, July 13. The Ballina-based school will tell the classic story of how four young children were transformed into swans, destined to spend 900 years on the lakes of Ireland, by a curse from their stepmother, through the traditional form of Irish dance.
The acclaimed Sheila Moffat School of Irish Dance has dancers from age 11 to 22, who have won numerous awards throughout the country. This is their first time performing at the newly-redeveloped Ballina Arts Centre and promises to be a spectacular treat for aficionados of Irish dance and newcomers alike.
Show starts at 8pm. Door opens 7.30pm . Tickets are €10 / €5, and booking is essential.
